I am not sure what could make a FS decide that for the same file, one file descriptor should use direct I/O and another should not. Keeping the flag at file descriptor level would require VFS modification in the kernel: the filesystem knows nothing about file descriptors, it just know vnodes. It could be done, but I expect to meet resistance :-) -- Emmanuel Dreyfus http://hcpnet.free.fr/pubz manu@xxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@xxxxxxxxxxx http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
